Stop Global Warming - Threadless, Best T-shirts Ever

The story goes down to September last year when I went to the cinema to see the "Inconvenient Truth" documentary based on the conferences Al Gore has been making for years now. I already knew about global warming (or man provocked climate change accentuation if you wish) and already had daily attitudes to minize my ecological impact but after getting what I think to be a lecture of hard an undeniable data I knew we have to do more and make others realize at least there is a problem and they need to think about it.

The first and last step to change is thought.

So after a few days of seeing it I was drawing on my sketchbook and this image of a globe melting suddenly appeared. I had to do it, so I spent most of the nigth drawing it and the next days making it a vectorial and consequently a design. I thougth then: "What am I doing with this? How can I share this with others?"

The rest of the stoy you can view for yourself, hatred, warmonging, name-calling, the works LOL

But who cares? As long as I made someone think about the issue and read some of my links, my job is done.

Right now I am re-designing the work and will donate it to one of the global warming concerned NGO's, if they want it...

Erased the last blog, if anyone comes here to spread their unresolved hatred I will erase it again...

Sorry for those who shouldn't have been erased.

i hate it when people humor me and mislead me into thinking one thing when they know the exact opposite will happen

The best link I've ever found on the issue:

http://www.designcanchange.org/#issue/problem

Altough it is design oriented this site contains a great and simple explanation for the climate change issue.
